2. For the reaction: CO(g) + 2 H2(g) 2 CH3OH(g), Ke = 14.5 at 500 K. Predict whether a mixture that contains 1.50 mol of H2, 1.00 mol of CO, and 0.50 mol of CH3OH in a 10.0-L vessel at 500 Kc is at equilibrium. If not, indicate the direction in which the net reaction will occur to reach equilibrium.
